NAME
bpalogin - login client for the Telstra Bigpond Cable Network (Australia)
SYNOPSIS
bpalogin
-c conffile -D
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
bpalogin
command.
It was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original
program does not have a manual page.
bpalogin is an open source login client for the Telstra Bigpond Cable
Network in Australia. It is neither written nor supported by Telstra or
Bigpond. It is both simple to use and stable. Unlike the standard client it
does not crash, reconnects when there is a network problem, is available for
most operating systems, can run as a service on WinNT/2k/xp and comes with source.
OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below
-c conffile
Specifies the location of the configuration file (usually /etc/bpalogin.conf).
This file contains the password and should therefore not be world readable.
